I screwed up on WVU. My next upset is Utah State.
I bought into the Big12 hype as well. I do have college of charleston vs Furman in the next game 🤞

Seeing all of these games back to back makes me realize how good Marquette actually is comparatively.

As expected, Bama is killing.

I get it, each year is different and resumes/metrics are what they are

But at some point common sense has to prevail.

Playing 18 or 20(whatever it is) games against Mountain west teams does not make you good. This league is bad.

Continually prove they are not ready

0 for their last 10

Happy for Furman, picked them too (though I never would have thought they'd do it with Bothwell on the bench late).  However, even though I don't love SDSU's style, I'm not pulling for CoC cause Pat Kelsey is a clown

Too soon?

I don't enjoy watching it, but I get it to a certain extent late in games (eg: UCLA).  But UVA does it all damn game long and its terrible.  Just miserable basketball.

Watching Missouri, I remember MU missing out on Noah Carter and, beyond being totally happy with what we got instead, he's just not impressive at all at this level.  I don't think he'd crack the rotation.

Carter had a good game. 10, 6, and 5. And, he was a plus 12 for the game.

Tough crowd.

At UVA, Tony Bennett has made 9 of last 11 NCAA Tourneys, won a National Championship, added an Elite 8, a Sweet 16, 6 regular season ACC Titles, 2 ACC Tourney Titles.

That said, good for Furman.

A year from now, if UVA has another early exit from the tournament and Gard gets canned, I wonder if Bennett will make the jump back home.  He'll be five years removed from his championship season and he's starting to get stale at Virginia.

Truly sorry for disparaging ANYTHING related to the state of Missouri.  I stand by what I said about Carter and his 9/4/2 average not getting much run on a much better Marquette team.

I know you love being a contrarian, but in the 7 years since Bennett made the E8, he's won a single tournament game outside of the 2019 run.  And his 2020 team in the cancelled COVID tourney wasn't one of his better ones.  Thats not a "tough" crowd to criticize that sort of tourney performance year in and year out from a perennial top 10/15 team.

He's a very good regular season coach, but I would be willing to wager the vast majority of UVA fans would trade some conference titles for more actual success in the tournament.

Yep. And if we had a recent natty, I would not get too upset about being upset. Bennett's overall record is great, even with embarrassing upsets in '18 and '21 and now '23 in the tourney.

I do not like his style of bball, but the guy is a class act and also displayed a great sense of humor after being blown out by UMBC. When a reporter congratulated him on being named COY, he replied "Oh, I thought that was for being best coach in the tourney. (Pause) You mean I didn't win?"

Pat Kelsey is a great recruiter and a great coach with a big personality. Will dominate at his next program. I advocated for him over the  Wojo hire.

Yep. He was clearly happy for Richey and Furman after the game too. It isn't my preferred style of ball either. But for anyone to say he isn't a good coach or doesn't win at a high level, that just isn't true. Not a lot of dudes out there walking around with that kind of success.

SDSU realizing how much bigger and stronger they are.

Either driving to the rim or throwing it up at the rim and going to get the rebound every possession now.

If they just keep doing that and dont try to get cute the MW will have a victor

Lol. Funny how when I made UVA comments, defending the state of Virginia doesn't come up.

It certainly stood out as an interesting game choice to say Carter can't play at this level at all. He is what he is, a 7th/8th scoring option, role playing, rotational player, on a top 25, top 4 SEC team. 10, 6, 5, and +12 in an NCAA Tourney win over Utah State is a pretty good game.

Saw this one coming, Princeton scheming the hell out of the Cats. I noted a Princeton first half play in the wagering thread, Tigers don't have the studs U of A has, but this was destined to be a tough game for the Cats.

Would love to be wrong.

But still feel like Zona pulls away by mid 2nd half at latest.

Of course, they would.  NCAA would not let them decline.  They would have to play in a game that they would feel is beneath them.

Yeah just like the NCAA got tough with UNC for making up classes.  Oh wait...

Every game I've seen today has been a freaking ref show. Calling every little thing. Takes the fun out of it.

I dont think they have attacked since I said this.

So much brutal coaching. Stop over thinking things and just play to your strengths.

Pound the paint and Charleston cannot stop you. Then make your damn free throws.
